Yeah, looking at the article again the Atari rep does call out Europe specifically. I guess I deserve to be deceived if I trust a news website with a .biz extension.

How is the site deceiving you if there is mention to the fact that it's Europe specifically? Also, perhaps worth noting is that it's a UK-based site (which would explain the point of view from which it is written).

And, with that, millions of people around the world who intelligently voted in their DNF deadpools that the answer was "never" are now 100% correct.

Nonsense. Always bet on Duke.

Apparently, the Duke Nukem Trilogy for DS and PSP are still scheduled for release. Duke isn't going down that easily.

3D Realms reportedly closed, Duke Nukem Trilogy 'unaffected' - News at GameSpot


Wow...Take-Two retains Duke Nukem Forever publishing rights.

In that it takes several paragraphs to get to this (implied) point. It's like a newspaper article with the headline FRENCH FRIES ARE CYANIDE RISK and then when you read all the way to the bottom it was just one guy's french fries and it turned out the cyanide was because the kid working the deep fryer dropped an Almond Joy in there.

I had no idea the site was UK-focussed, and Infernal certainly didn't point it out; ergo, I was deceived.

I am still betting on Duke. This is just a hoax publicity stunt, and E3 will have a gigantic Duke-a-mania.

So, a remake of Lunar: The Silver Star was announced for the PSP in the latest Famitsu (it's titled Lunar: Harmony of the Silver Star). Graphically, it looks similar to Lunar Legend, except towns and dungeons are now viewed from an isometric angle.

oh nice! I love Lunar:SSSC on ps1 but sadly I lost my cds and the only way I could play it now was on emulator, but having this on psp will be great!

edit: just found the scan if anyone is interested.

As much as I love the Lunar series, I question how many times they're gonna keep re-releasing this game. I mean, isn't this like the fifth time they've done so? Even though I heard it wasn't that great, I'd rather they make original titles in the franchise like Lunar: Dragon Song instead of releasing the first game over and over again.

But I heard Dragon Song was awful. Also if they bring that PSP port/remake of SSSC out here I wonder how its translation will compare to Working Designs' masterpiece.

Yeah, I'd love to have SSSC portable, but I've heard none of the versions can really stack up to the Working Designs' translation. It just wouldn't be quite the same without all that quirky stuff they put in there.

Dragon Song was a tragedy. I was so excited about the prospect of a new Lunar game, and then it turned out to be horrible with practically no redeeming features.

As much as I love Wolfenstein (and I fucking love Wolfenstein), I really would like to see ports of Doom RPG and Wolfenstein RPG show up on the Arcade. They'd just, you know, need to make 'em 200-400 points a pop.

When I played through Return to Castle Wolfenstein on the OldBox (Which was a great game btw) I got really excited that you could unlock the original Wolf3D when you finished it.

Then I finished it, replayed Wolf3D and was really disappointed how badly it had aged. Doom is still pretty playable now, Wolfenstein is just a bit dull sadly.

They should have reduced it to a minigame where you attempt to teabag robohitler. Now that's an unlockable!

Oh wow.

Kotaku - Nintendo Power: Tatsunoko vs Capcom Coming To US - Tatsunoko

Tatsunoko vs Capcom is allegedly coming to the US. All that licensing tape but it's happening.

It seems we may not have seen the last of Duke Nukem Forever.

Take-Two is suing 3D Realms, basically for taking too god damn long to make the game and ultimately shitcanning it. Also, they want the DNF source code to be preserved for the entirety of the trial.

The writer brings up a good point. If Take-Two wins, and they get the source code, they may actually finish the job and we just might get to see that awesome gameplay that Garr posted put to good use.

Hideo Kojima is screwing with us again...the son of a bitch. A teaser site on konami's website has been updated. It's a vast field and thunder and lightning going on. When the lightning flashes, what looks to be the number "5" or an "S" appears briefly then disappears.

KOJIMA PRODUCTION "NEXT"

Now could this be Metal Gear Solid 5? Well it's likely that it is a Metal Gear game. If you view the source of the page, here's a look at the metatags:

<meta name="author" content="KONAMI" />
<meta name="description" content="KOJIMA PRODUCTION &quot;NEXT&quot;">
<meta name="copyright" content="©2009 Konami Digital Entertainment" />
<meta name="keywords" content="Hideo Kojima, MGS,METAL GEAR, NEXT, game, konami, kojima game, KJP, Kojima Production ">

Like I said Hideo could be screwing with us again. It's something to watch out for, though.

or they could just be putting those things in the code because people will search for them. either way, my bet it if it is mgs it will be like metal gear acid or some other non-canonical game.

how awesome would it be if it were mgs4 subterfuge (or suburb) for xbox 360...

but how much you want to bet it's like zone of the enders or something.

Zone of the Enders is arguably a lot more exciting than MGS4 for the 360. Sorry bub.

General internet consensus seems to be that it's a new MGS game with Raiden in it, a.k.a Metal Gear Unpopular I imagine.
